I took a brief trip to the Jones Beach coast guard station early Saturday (2/1) and saw what I believe to be several (5+) Yellow-rumper Myrtle Warblers. I've seen these guys late into the Fall but is it unusual to see them at this time of year? From what i've read they generally overwinter further south and this would be above the northern limit of their range in early February. I've posted a photo below as I may be incorrect with the ID. Any comments would be helpful. Thanks
